He was a nice enough guy. Must have had
a nice grandma because somehow he got to the subject of carrot cake. He has the
best recipe, from his grandma.

He also told me that my oven was accurate at 300° but not
at 350 °.200, 400 300 fine.

But not 350
°

His grandma made the best scones. OH, I said I might like
the recipe. Sorry, Grandma is gone – no offer for the recipe.

While standing in my very happy kitchen with red this and
that, he said his wife liked red, but he did not like red. It is too bright.
Why did I tell him I have a red car?So
he could tell me that while he was a policeman in California, red cars got more
tickets.

He called a couple places to find parts
and the grand total $ 545. Plus tax. I don’t know if that included
installation.I do know, I can live with
an oven that is slightly off in the 350 ° zone.

At least for a while.

Of course, his grandma told him that he should always bake
chicken at 300 ° because it will be more moist.And he also told me a few tips on baking
carrot cake.

He did NOT know that I,
Kathy, have the best recipe for carrot cake from my friend Jeannette Adamson.I also have several friends who bake great
scones.

So, I have an oven that is a little off ( like me ) and here
I am in my studio thinking I should have a little more red in this bright,
happy, pink and green room.

For some reason I am hungry.Think I
will have myself a slice of carrot cake ( just happen to know which shelf it is
on in the freezer )
